    #RockNRollHeaven

    Stevie Ray Vaughan was taken way too early. This version of Jimi Hendrix's Little Wing has been one of my favourite songs since I first heard it. Plug in some headphones and turn it up.

  2. I'm at the #Beck and #Phoenix Summer Odyssey concert in Rogers, AR tonight! So excited to see two of my favorite music acts!! #rocknrollheaven

  3. I'll throw my hat in the ring for #JukeboxFriday with the theme of #RockNRollHeaven.

    This one hurt when I heard she'd passed. Ronnie Spector was such a force. What a voice! What style! What fortitude! She was a bad bitch before we started using the term.

    'Sing me a song, you're a singer
    Do me a wrong, you're a bringer of evil
    The devil is never a maker
    The less that you give, you're a taker
    So it's on and on and on, it's Heaven and Hell'

  5. And breaking away from Rock N Roll itself, but a music artist we lost too soon. I recently read through the book, Changes: An Oral History of Tupac Shakur, so can't ignore a man this important.

  6. How about another #JukeboxFridayNight. On the theme of #RockNRollHeaven - how about Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Inductee, pioneer of funk, & one of the most prolific artists of all time (59 studio albums over his 50 year career as a solo artist): James Brown

    Here's "Get Up Offa That Thing (Release the Pressure)" youtube.com/watch?v=QS8FxHsw0U

  7. So it's #JukeboxFridayNight and the theme is another one that will lead to a not so diverse set of picks, even though the history of Rock N Roll should be otherwise.

    So let's do this #RockNRollHeaven right, not white.

    Little Richard "Long Tall Sally" & "Tutti Frutti"

    Meat Loaf - Heaven Can Wait
    Can't believe I didn't think of this earlier for this week's hashtag so, another Meat Loaf entry.

    Heaven can wait
    And a band of angels wrapped up in my heart
    Will take me through the lonely night
    Through the cold of the day

    The Carpenters - We've Only Just Begun
    I could probably listen to Karen Carpenter's voice all day, although preferably not on Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft 🙂

    We've only just begun to live
    White lace and promises
    A kiss for luck and we're on our way
    (We've only begun)

  10. CW: Death by Rock and Roll

    And as a bit of an indulgence, Taylor Momsen of the Pretty Reckless is still alive, but this is the title track from the album they put out while struggling with their producer Kato Khandwala's death, less than a year after Chris Cornell died while the Pretty Reckless were opening for Soundgarden.

    Meat Loaf - You Took The Words Right Out Of My Mouth
    Now at least I did get to see Meat Loaf a fair few times over the years; a great show every time.

    And then you took the words right out of my mouth
    Oh, it must have been while you were kissing me
    You took the words right out of my mouth
    Oh, and I swear it's true
    I was just about to say I love you
